Such a lovely, kind and helpful soul is surely lighting up the Heavens. June is sorely missed by the staff and the members of the LRMC Wellness Center where she volunteered for years. Thank you for sharing her with us!
June and I worked together as dispatchers at FHP Ft. Lauderdale and we have been friends ever since. A beautiful soul has winged its way to heaven. June was a good and generous person. I will miss her terribly. Sharing your sadness as we remember June. My condolences and heartfelt sympathy to her family.

June was my dispatcher when I started working for FHP in 1975. We shared the same birthday and exchanged cards each year.
One of my favorite stories she told of a new Trooper who was becoming familiar with the radio 10 signals- 10-x( a number) meant something specific - so as the new Trooper was signing off at the end of one of his first shifts he radioed in to June:
"Roses are red
Violets are blue
I'll be 10-7( out of service)
At my 10-42(home)"
She's home now too. A wonderful lady who I will miss.
Broken hearted to hear of June's passing what a wonderful lady. I will miss seeing you and getting my hug and kiss at Wolfy's . Turk I love you sir and I am here if you need me
